$300 a month for a 2 BR townhouse on Starboard. Gardere wasn't bad back then. I paid 1/2 of that.

Then I moved to a 1 BR in Tigerland for $250/month. Again, Tigerland wasn't bad like it is now.

This was '84-85

Was $810 for a single bedroom with electricity included about 7 years ago. I think a small student discount was included in that rate.

I paid half of $375 for a 2/2 in Lake Charles.

Wish I still lived there. I now pay half of 1690 in New Orleans for a slightly worse 2/2.

College apartment has actual ceramics as opposed to laminate, that's about the only difference.

$750, split with a roommate. Was a nice 2 bedroom, upstairs and downstairs.

Good ole days. Pay triple that now just for me.
